News Releases

November 6, 2025 Polars' crowning achievement comes one win at a time Crown has five wins under its belt and a real chance to clinch a playoff spot from the UMAC over the next two weeks, which is a long way from where the program was a few years ago. Greg Thomas has more in Around the Nation.
October 2, 2020 UMAC adds Finlandia for 2021 With the Upper Midwest Athletic Conference facing the potential loss of its automatic bid, the conference has turned to Finlandia. The program has won just two countable games in the past four seasons, including two winless seasons in the MIAA.
September 25, 2019 After the streaks Not far removed from a three-season-plus losing streak, Grove City had a nice little win streak going. So with William Paterson and Crown having put their large losing streak away, perhaps they can do the same. Adam Turer has more in Around the Nation.
September 14, 2019 Roundup: Crown snaps 24-game losing streak Less than 24 hours after William Paterson snapped the longest active losing streak in Division III, Crown did the same. Meanwhile, Brockport's defense was all the scoring it would need, Salisbury held on and Lycoming rallied to beat a rival. More in the Week 2 roundup.
August 3, 2017 NACC set for football expansion in 2018 Multiple sources tell D3sports.com that the Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference will be adding an eighth school for football starting next fall.
September 24, 2015 Policing not only the streets, but also the backfield Josh Brozek said a common question he gets asked is, “When do you sleep?” And considering he not only goes to class and plays football for Crown, but also works as a police officer, that's a fair question.
